Old precooked burgers. Came out too fast to be fresh. Cold fries . Sent them back. Hot ones came out quickly but they charged us 3.50 extra . Second waitress did not realize first order was gluten free. One and done.

The food, portions, prices, and service are all absolutely fantastic! They even gave us free gluten-free cookies with our meal when they realized our order was mostly gluten-free. We really appreciated that attention to detail. I highly recommend this restaurant!

Love love love everything about this place. Stumbled into it after in late. The service was quick. The atmosphere was adorable and the food was excellent. I had never had a gluten-free crepe until I came here. Would definitely come back and recommend to others.

This place is so amazingly good! I have to avoid wheat, so I ordered the chile relleno which is gluten free, their ranchero sauce is made in house, incredible! The pintos, oh so good, the service, the decor, and there are so many gluten-free dessert options, the lemon cheesecake Takes the Cake :-) thank you!

Jennifer Miller

This is a lovely restaurant right by the marina with indoor/outdoor seating. The food is delicious! They offer many gluten free and vegan options.

Kathy S

Eat here weekly. Celiac-friendly for some dishes. Great food.

Sinh Luong

Great little stop for brunch. They have great options and gluten free options, but it's hard to resist the pancakes and french toast. Service is fast and friendly, and the portions are good.

Barret Kendrick

My family is in town every few months. This became a favorite place for breakfast. They have gluten free options, fresh fruit, and plenty of other items to bring us back.

Lorenzo

Good food, nice place and friendly waiters. Gluten free menu available and very competent personnel

Lydia A

Very friendly, but the gluten free menu isn't good

Shayna Weldon

My family went here. Pizzas were delicious. Great service. Everything was good! My mom is gluten free so we got the cauliflower, which is GOOOOD!

Daniel Swisher

The crust on their pizza is good but not for the price. Also tried gluten free pizza crust and its disappointing.

Sara Wicht

Attended a brushstrokes and beverages event here. The location and setting are lovely. I like the conglomeration of seating options throughout. The menu felt a bit limited for any dietary restrictions. We needed vegan and gluten-free. Our server did accommodate us with gluten-free crackers on the cheese plate we ordered.

Marjan M

If you have food allergies stay away from this place. We ended up in ER even though we emphasize our kid is having anaphylaxis allergies to gluten and egg and they assured their pizza doesn't have any.

Absolutely delicious! This exceeded our expectations, not that they were low, lol. Service was impeccable and professional, prompt and gracious. Every meal at the table was perfect! Lamb chops were better than most you pay $$$$ for! Baklava was SO perfect! Easy to gluten free or dairy free here.

Sven and Janine Hurty

Delicious food! What I appreciated most is that they were diligent in addressing a gluten allergy in my family. In addition to having allergies checkable on the ordering website, they also called me to ensure I knew that some of the items we ordered were not gluten free. It made us feel very very safe in ordering with a good allergy!

Jacque Smith

Called to find out about gluten free options and the server was more then happy to answer all questions I had and accommodate our needs to the best of their ability. One member in our party is vegetarian and we were pleasantly surprised at the variety of options for them as wel. Despite all our different dietary needs, we all had fantastic food, great service and the mellow vibe of the restaurant made for a great breakfast. Thank you to the staff and cooks.

Food was delicious. I had the gluten free buckwheat pancakes, which were better than the regular buckwheat ones. My friend had the regular ones and we could taste a specific flavor difference that we both were like... but our server was great, Craig, he understood and my friend got traditional fluffy pancakes instead and was happy. Great server! I would go back for sure. I also had the mocha muchacho with oatmilk and loved it!

Melissa Erker

So happy to have found a place that checks the boxes for everyone in my family! I’m gluten free and my husband likes a good diner breakfast and usually those two don’t mix. This place has amazing gluten free choices, diner food like options, fun options for the kids, and some “healthy” options. Love their organic coffee and they use pasture raised eggs from Vital Farms! The service was fabulous, our server was incredibly friendly. Just an overall great experience.

I have been coming to this place for quite sometime. As someone with Celiac I was excited to see the gluten free options, especially the fries! After eating there multiple times and asking about the fries being in a separate frier we were told they were. It wasn’t until the last time that our server informed me that they cannot guarantee the fries weren’t fried with the pita, even though they have 2 friers! She did check and was told that on that day they hadn’t fried pitas in the same frier. Sadly we went again hoping for the same outcome, but that was not the case. Evidently both friers had fried the pitas. Our server actually tried to charge us $10 for some cucumbers to have with our hummus, despite not getting the pita. It makes me super sad that we cannot go there safely and I won’t be able to bring friends and family there anymore. *Edited to update. I so wanted to give them other chances after my last review, based on the owner’s response. However, just tonight our server informed us that my regular dish is NOT dairy free! The manager doesn’t even know, how can they expect their servers to be properly trained? He gaslit me by asking if I had a reaction before! It’s none of his business! Every reaction can vary and before they someone, PLEASE train your staff m!!!

Chuck Erickson

We had an amazing meal here! The food was made fresh and tasted amazing. They have a really delicious gluten free crust. I would definitely go back here!

Micah Becker

There's a lot of dairy-free, vegan, gluten-free, options.

Stoney Dudebro

When you have a fast food craving as a vegan it’s hard to find good options and I was really impressed with this place. Everything was amazing. The “Bacon Cheeseburger”, the sweet potato fries, the organic lemon lime soda…. and the gluten free peanut butter pie was AMAZING!!! The whole menu is vegan!!

Sendi “SoCal Realtor” Mora

Visited for the first time on Saturday afternoon. The service was amazing. Everyone was friendly and welcoming. Food was delicious and it came out fast. The variety of seasonings they offer for your pizza is fantastic. (No basic red pepper flakes here!) I definitely recommend this place. We ordered 1 Gluten Free Pizza, 1 Regular Pizza, Ceasar Salad, and mozzarella sticks. Everything was tasty.

Kristen Marie

Have had great meals here in the past, but super bummed about how simple, boring, and dry the burger is now on the new menu! Granted I always order it gluten and dairy free, but the older burger had sauces and fixings which still made it mouthwatering without the cheese. Now, not so much. Not sure how common this complaint is given the dietary modifications, but it would be amazing to get a slightly more exciting and tasty burger back on the menu.

Ground Hideout is like a home away from home. I moved in a few blocks away during the beg of the pandemic ,and found this spot during one of walks. The family is beautiful and makes you feel welcome every time you come in. The drinks are delicious and creative, and they sometimes have vegan and gluten free options for their pastries!

Gluten-free Gale

I love Outback because they are so careful with gluten-free food for me with celiac disease. They are also consistantly very good at all their locations. When traveling to conferences I look for Outback. This time someone made a mistake and added bread to my gluten-free meal. They were great and offered to remake the meal or credit me. Unfortunately I had gotten my food to go and had not checked. Thank you for making it good. I will see you at some location soon.

Wendolyn

The outdoor seating option is great! However, the menu is overwhelming to read (paper format/ no QR) and the portions are on the smaller side. On the plus side they did have a gluten free menu which was easier to navigate. 4% additional charge to the bill for “minimum wage increase and benefits”.

It's busy on the weekend. People write their names on the list. They can accommodate gluten free but not officially on the menu so not gluten free bread. It's not small but rectangular and seating is somewhat limited. Street parking. The service and food is good and the price is average.

I recently went to brunch here with one of my friends and we had the best time! I got the Dr. Bamboo and the Bye Bye Ladies. I enjoyed both drinks very much, the bye bye ladies was very heavy on coconut side and very creamy so just be aware of that! We started with the parfait to share, it really set the tropical mood being served in a pineapple. I got the Loco Moco for food and it was amazing!! It was a great dairy free option and I THINK gluten free but dont quote me on it. You can always opt out for no gravy but it was more broth than lime a thick flour gravy.

Stephanie Macias

-I have a serious problem with gluten and unfortunately was served regular pasta noodles by the MANAGER. -We were charged gratuity with a party of 7 when the menu states gratuity is applied to parties of 8 🙄 -No refills -Kids never got the drinks that were supposed to come with their kids meals. -Rude hostess -Short staffed -They put a layer of chips on the bottom of the calamari appetizer to make it look like a larger portion...so weird!

Steven Chatman

No problem dealing w gluten free dairy free. Really good steak. Appetizers were fun. Wine was amazing. Ate outdoors. Nice enclosed patio with heat lamps.

Rance's Chicago Pizza is a recommendation to me from a few weeks ago. During my experience, customer service is good especially for a seemingly somewhat busy night. The eatery offers a variety of seating options; outdoor and indoor (high, low, hard, and soft cushion) seating. There are televisions. I order the Gluten Free Vegan Small Thin Crust w/ Mushrooms and Garlic splitting the pie though joining in the middle. The meal is so filling and really tasty, warm. The slices don't taste anywhere near as good to me in the morning. Yet, the flavors linger, whether fresh out of the oven or hours later, so much; the aftertaste is amazing and consistent.

Parking might be tricky depending on the time of the day. Gluten free muffin that wasn't too sweet. There.aren't a lot of seating. More of a counter seating than table and chairs. No outdoor seating. The drink was good but luke warm. A little pricey. The service was good.

Jae Price

I really would love to give a better rating, because the staff and waiters were amazing! They were very attentive, understood the menu and gave suggestions specific to our dietary needs (gluten free). The food was 1- expensive for what we got! 4 tiny lamb chops, rice and veggies $38! Six pieces of beef total on 2 tiny kabobs $23 with rice and veggies. 2nd- the food was BLAND! Not enough salt, seasoning, or herbs. I’m not sure if there was any seasoning added to flavor the food. Not on the veggies either- frozen veggies heated up, that is all! The best thing on the meal was- the rice! How does the cheapest part of the meal score so high!? It had flavor and seasoning!!! It was a huge disappointment.

Copa! We love this local coffee shop. They have really stepped up their coffee game in the last 6-8 months or so. Now it's very consistently great lattes. We also really enjoy their food - the morning grains bowl is a great gluten-free option (otherwise not many). My husband likes the avocado toast with an egg. Great service - very friendly. There's also a very cute wine + gifts/cheese store in the same shopping center that is very cool.

Eric Kemp

Penthouse vibes. Super friendly and youthful staff. Beautiful dishes served on nice stoneware. Delicious food? Meh. It was fine. The drinks were watery, though, and the portions were very small and less delicious than they looked. The quiche was probably the best tasting food item. The cheese puffs were also good and, surprisingly, gluten free. And did I mention the vibes?

Sean P. Cunningham

Came here with family.. From the moment we walked in Kristina was engaging and helpful. We had there meatballs and Cesar salad. Meatballs were the closest to my own mothers. My wife and mother in law has pizza that was gluten free. I had the pepperoni and sausage. My step son had vegetarian pizza. Everyone enjoyed there selections. 3 out of the 4 had drinks. For our bill was just over $170 . For appetizer, salad, and 3 pizzas. Stop in you won't be disappointed!!!

Ann Battenfield

Service was friendly and fast. Value was good. There was a bit of confusion about whether things were gluten-free. Fortunately most people don't have to worry about that. One of the employees may have been new as there was confusion with the register. It's clear that there already are regulars as some customers were greeted by name and one of the employees knew what they ordered. All of our tacos were very good as where the beans. I thought the rice was a little soft; the flavor was very good. The agua fresco was delicious.

Madelyn Montoya

Delicious dishes, thoughtfully layered flavors. Great gluten free options. Excellent service.

Lisa Tobias

Fantastic vibes in here! Loved the music and all my friends loved the beer. The sour was my favorite. If you're gluten free, there's the Sake Secret pop up inside and it's legit! If you're new to sake or u need a gf alternative, there's so much to learn and so many Japanese sake options to choose from :)

rahmah orwani

The falafel was perfect, we don’t find this quality very often. The staff is very helpful they used a new oil for my falafel when I told them I have allergy to gluten. I recommend this place.

Free street parking. Some gluten free options. One restroom. Dining inside and on the sidewalk. People ofen order food and grab a table. The food is a little pricey but good.

B W

One of the Coffee Drunk chain locations. It's small but it has covered outdoor seating. It's a little pricey but good coffee. Gluten free options. Free street parking.

Vinnie Johnson

The ambiance is soo chill. So many options for breakfast and brunch foods. Great gluten free options like acai bowls. The matcha bannana smothie was fire. Generous portions and the belgian waffle was so good i didnt even need syrup. I also recomend the sasage burrito it comes with super tasty homemade salsa. Friendly staff.

Jeffrey El Jefe

We purchase a family sized meal from here and another one from a competitor for about the same price. Although the competition provided more traditional sides and a larger amount of chicken, pound for pound, the sides at Pollo were tastier and the chicken was prepared in a much healthier way. It's a great gluten free option.

Ms. Opie J.

I've never eaten there till today... I'm a gluten free eater...I had grilled chicken over veggies and a small drink. It was EXCELLENT!!!! The staff was patient and very pleasant towards me. I'll be coming thru again on my "ME" days ❤❤❤❤❤

Kate L

Wow this food is delicious. Every bite was just superb, and they did a great job of working with our multiple food allergies/sensitivities (Gluten, soy, dairy, etc). Everything from the drinks to dessert were great. My favorite part was actually all their vegetables - how do they make them taste so good?!? Just make sure you get some of those (any kind) with whatever you order :) Plus portions are the perfect size. Don’t expect to go home with leftovers!

Morgan Lindsay

If you're in Long Beach, this is a must! And such a great local spot to support. They offer beautiful brunch fare that is nourishing and delicious. They have many options for gluten free, vegan, and vegetarian. I personally find it hard to find quality food in Long Beach that feeds me PLANTS - but this place is an exception and always hits the spot when I want something that just feels good to my body. And their coffee is amazing (try the cardamon latte), as well as their pastries (we love the financiers, ricotta cake, coconut almond cookies, scones) and homemade seasonal jams. Plus the owner is so kind and welcoming. Just go! And then go back! :)
